3 Alvin ISD workers fired after allegedly mishandling special education students, principal says

PEARLAND, Texas (KTRK) -- Three Alvin ISD employees have been fired after allegedly mishandling special education students in a classroom, according to Nolan Ryan Junior High's principal.

Principal Dana Green said in a statement to Nolan Ryan Junior High families that the incident involving the inappropriate physical handling of students occurred in May, at the end of the 2025-26 school year.

Green said that the families of the students directly involved were notified when the incident was reported to the district. The three individuals are no longer employed by the district, Green said.

Green addressed the situation in the following statement in a letter to the school's families that read in part:

"The safety and well-being of our students is our highest priority, and Alvin ISD has zero tolerance for conduct that compromises the trust placed in our schools. Since this incident occurred, the District has reviewed its procedures and implemented additional safeguards, oversight measures, and accountability practices designed to strengthen student protections and reduce the likelihood of similar incidents occurring in the future."

At this time, details regarding the incident are limited, as an investigation is still ongoing, Green added.
